Welcome to Episode 63 of the Future of Pickleball podcast! In this episode, Paul Olson talks with Dr. Kwabena Akufo, who has been working to grow pickleball in Africa. Dr. Akufo shares his journey: from discovering pickleball in the United States, to establishing the sport in Ghana during the COVID pandemic, and eventually forming the Confederation of African Pickleball. He talks about the successes and challenges of growing a sport across an entire continent, and how it was finally included as a demonstration sport in the African Games. Paul and Dr. Akufo talk about the grassroots approach to sports development, the importance of community engagement, and the vision for pickleball's future in Africa.
